The Name That Album thread

1. Post an image of the front cover of an LP or CD, with most if not all of said cover displayed. No tiny, obscure fragments; at least half of the cover image should be shown. Titles and text can be covered, obscured and/or or airbrushed away. EPs are allowed too, as long as they're stated as such upon posting.

2. Whoever solves the mystery cover, then posts their own new mystery cover. In the event they cannot or choose not to do so, the person whose mystery cover was solved may post another and if they do not, the floor is open.

3. When solving a cover, please include in writing the artist name and album name in your answer, even when providing an image of a revealed cover. This way we can keep track of what's been posted via a thread search, thus reducing repeat mystery covers.



The first one:

 

Dead Kennedy's - Frankenchrist

 

Couldn't you at least have waited five minutes?

 

Ok here is mine: Title removed.

 

And if this one proves to be too difficult I can give hints.

 

No idea. Scanning my iTunes in "cover flow" mode... to no effect.

 

The 1st one was easy. I've never seen this one. Is that cuneiform?

 

Too difficult. Could you please provide hints?

 

Hey! Just trying to get the ball rolling.

 

i am no good at this game

 

Saw the band live around 1988 in Richmond Virginia. I Purchased the album after the show. Velvet is in the title of the band.

 

I saw them in DC. Velvet Monkeys.

Gimme a minute for my turn.

I like this thread.

 

The more I flip through LPs, the more I realize how absurdly tough this could get. Post the back of the indie-est indie band cover and wait.

 

I snapped the front cover. Artist/band name at top of LP, out of snap shot.

 

Hints will help if it is too difficult

 

IMHO, if it is a highly obscure album / band, you should man up and show the front cover to at least give people a fighting chance.:thmbsp:

-D

 

I don't know that one.

 

UK folk band. One critic said they sounded like Steeleye Span and the Jefferson Airplane fighting over the stash.

I was going to guess Fairport Convention but don't see that album by them.
